Here’s something different from ToyWatch and I like it a lot. It’s a watch-friendship bracelet hybrid and all I can think is, why hasn’t this been done before?

The watch face is clean and classic, a nice contrast to the busy South American-inspired patterns of the woven friendship bracelet. These are pitched ‘for the festival season’ but I can’t imagine them going anywhere near a muddy field, can you? Much more suited for lazy days in the park with a Pimms, or a clubby long weekend in Ibiza.

Anyway, they sell for £125 and are stocked at Selfridges, Harrods, Harvey Nichols and ToyWatch…

I see what you mean! I’m guessing you put the tasselled ends through the buckle but hopefully the woven bit is long enough that you just poke the buckle spoke through the woven area and then the long tasselled ends …er… wrap around each other in a knot? Yeah a bit baffling!

@Beautiful Things – a reply from the PR for you:
“There are holes like a normal watch strap throughout the band.
You thread the ties through the buckle and then wrap the strap around your wrist like a bracelet.” That’s kind of what I thought!

I have seen friendship watches before but these ones look a little more sophisticated than the ones i spotted, I decided to have a go at making one not too long ago, it does take forever as the width of the strap is a lot wider than an ordinary friendship bracelet xx
